Messrs. Clark and Byers are now
busy at work on a new store building
at Stuttgart. We heard 81 good man
say that ne expected to put in a livery
barn, ana a hotel. Who says that we
viii not have a good town? Verify
Stuttgart will soon have veritable
live boom, and we may soon expect to
see street railways, electric lights and
all the modern Improvements.
Seriously speaking the town is locat-
ed in the garden spot Of Phillips eouu-
ty, and the people are just the kind
who will try to make it one of the best
little towns in the country.
All oyer the country one may see the
fields putting on their green garb and
the fall prospect was meyer BETTER than
it now is, for a fine crop of wheat and
rye. Many are afraid of chinch bugs
next year, and are not sowing any
grain, but we do not think there IS
much danger Of there b eng a repeti-
ton of this season losses by the little
pests next year, and it certainly looks
to US as though farmers would do well
to SOW rye for pasture to take 5he place
Of the hay that has been so plentiful
until this season. Besides, 1t is a well
known fact, that the wheat and rye
crop has been short all over the coun-
try this year, and if there is anything
in the supply and demand theory, we
may expect q far price for our grain
next year.
j. H. Fleisher is going to enclose a
large sheep pasture with a FIVE wire
fence.
We understand that Myth Younts
has traded part of his farm for farm
on Wolf Greek.
The present mixed condition of the
roads in this county has been a source
Of great annoyance to both people and
officers. In some cases, road officers
have refused to repair roads, because
they are not legal - still we can't see
how people can travel those roads
without their being worked any better
because they have been declared illegal
In other cases, land owners have re-
fused to allow roads to be repaired, be-
cause 'they are not legal, " thus caus-
ing inconvenience to travellers. The
fact is bad roads gIYe travellers a bad
impression of q country, and work
harm in this way Then, again, the
residents of a country need good roads,
and they need them just as badly now
as they did before the present muddled
condition of affairs, and it looks TO us
as though the wise plan would be to al
low road work to 90 on in the best
manner possible, and when the legisla-
ture convenes have all rosds in this
county legalized-unIess there IS a bet
ter plan. and if there is we would like
to know of it. PED.

The Association was called to order
by Superintendent Young. and pro-
ceeded to organize by electing Bfr. L. Z.
COuntryman president, and Miss Ella
Pearson, secretary. Quite number of
earnest teachers were present.
The question of supplementary read
ing was ably handled By Prof. Loar.
Among other things he said: Sup
Elementary reading is too generally
thought and spoken of as belonging to
the high grade; hence newspapers are
recommended. This is "a serious mis-
take. The lower grades need the sup
Elementary work. If well taught
through the third reader, the pupil viii

pills who have been crammed and
crowded oyer words without thought,
may be helped by using the Students

Sherwood & Co., Chicago. The speak
or showed how to use these success
fully.
Superintendent Young thought the
plan, if used by teachers, would be
great benefit. The geographical and
historical readers are not suitable on
account Of too many words. necessarily
used, which cannot be understood by
the pupils of that grade.
Miss Norris spoke of her use OF them
as being very successful.
The subject Of how to control whis-
Pering, was opened by Mrs. E j Nor
ris, followed by Prof. Loar.
Miss Fisher asked the question, what
to do with children whose parents
would not furnish books? which called
fourth considerable discussion.
The subject of writing lessons for
the little folks" having been assigned
to Miss Hiokenlooper, who was not
present, Miss Granger was called on
and gave her plan Of teaching begin
ners TO write. Miss Norris and Prof.
Loar made a few remarks on the same
subject.
/, E. COuntryman then gave a very
interesting object lesson on the lamp
Miss Fisher read an excellent seIee- I
ton entitled The Habit Of Reading.
The subject of object lessons was
again called up and discussed.
The president appointed the Misses
Norris, Fisher and Atchison a commit
tee to prepare program for the next
meeting.
Mr.. Young spoke Of the other dis
trict meetings, and urged the teachers
to attend them. He also suggested /
that teachers read the newspapers
more generally as a means Of obtaining
a knowledge of present events
Mr.. Cranmer was introduced and /
made some very appropriate remarks.
